About Jason

Jason Scrivner is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with 19 years of clinical experience. He has spent much of his career helping people cope with trauma, anxiety, depression, anger, and life transitions. He aims to make the first step into therapy feel manageable and supportive.

He creates a calm, open space where clients can talk about what matters most to them. Conversations focus on concrete concerns like motivation, self-esteem, stress, and grief.

Background and approach

Sessions emphasize practical skills you can try between meetings. Jason uses a mix of approaches depending on the person’s needs. He draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, and client-centered methods.

Motivational interviewing is used when people want help finding and sustaining change. Over nearly two decades in clinical work, he has worked with people facing addiction, bipolar disorder, and complex trauma. He also supports those dealing with relationship strain, caregiving stress, and issues tied to adoption or aging.

ADHD is one of the named focus areas he lists. Sessions may be tailored to coping strategies, emotional regulation, and communication skills. Jason speaks English and practices from Alabama.

He encourages a collaborative process where goals are set together and progress is reviewed as therapy continues.

How specific approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, so they can take steps toward a life they value. ACT can be useful for anxiety, depression, and motivation struggles. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on changing patterns of thinking and behavior by practicing different responses and testing assumptions in daily life. CBT often helps with depression, anxiety, and anger by giving clear skills to use between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made, keeping sessions collaborative and goal-oriented.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video lets you read facial cues and have deeper conversations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or you need a shorter check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging support quick check-ins, written reflections, or ongoing coaching between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and still work on concrete skills.
